<steps>
The <steps>
element provides the
main content of a task topic. The task is described as a series of
steps that the user must follow to accomplish the task. At least one <step>
element is required inside the <steps>
element.
Steps with only a single step may be rendered as a paragraph rather than as a list. Two or more
steps should typically be rendered as an ordered list. If all of the contained steps are simple
(that is, have no more than a <cmd>
element each) then the step list should default to
compact. Otherwise it should be rendered as expanded (with blank lines between each step).
<steps>
and <steps-unordered>
elements.
However, the default task model in the OASIS distribution (known as
strict task) continues to allow only one <steps>
or one <steps-unordered>
element.See appendix for information about this element in OASIS document type shells.
